What do you do when you see a troll posting?

[WebmasterAlex]

to the tune of "let it be" and with MAJOR apologies to the Beatles

When I find a poster who irritates me
The webmasters come to me
Speaking words of wisdom
snub the trolls
snub the trolls
snub the trolls
speaking words of wisdom
snub the trolls



And when all of the normal posters
posting on the boards agree
there will be an answer, snub the trolls..
For though trolls are crazy
there is still a chance that they will see
there will be an answer, snub the trolls
snub the trolls
snub the trolls
snub the trolls
There will be an answer, snub the trolls



And when the boards are vicious
There is a thought that shines on me
Shine on until tomorrow, snub the trolls
I wake up to a nice board
The webmasters come to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Snub the trolls
Snub the trolls
Snub the trolls
speaking words of wisdom
snub the trolls

You scroll away and pretend it never happened....??

 

[Minniespal]

Just move onto the next thread.

 

[LisaZoe]

Make responses to more deserving threads on page two or more to get the offending thread buried where it should be.

Depends on the troll...

Sometimes it's fun to feed a troll for the entertainment value. Even more so when it's a troll that is passionately pissed about something. A little food for the fire.... sit back, hold tight, driver clear. *beep beep* LOL

I think I just nod my head and move one...however, the mods have usually removed or locked the threads by the time I see/or hear of them.

No no no that is what makes them stay around even longer.

NEVER EVER FEED THE TROLLS.

LOL! That's great, Alex!

Depending on how offending the troll is, I'll PM a Webmaster. Otherwise I'll put them on ignore.

 

[Rootskate]

How do you know a troll is a troll (and no, its not like a knock knock joke!!). Is there particular persons you are best avoiding? I know some of the postees get worked up on certain issues but I just thought that was what forums were for??!? Oh, and I DO hope no-one thinks this is from a troll

Lately in the mornings when I sign on there have been several posts with people trying to sell items like electronics and other items. I don't know if its been worse lately or I have just been on earlier.

 

[WebmasterAlex]

It's simple Widget, if they walk like a troll and smell like a troll...they are a troll!

Ummm, Alex....how do you "smell" someone posting? (Unless of course it is Pop Daddy with his sleeveless shirts?)

Do you need special webmaster powers?
